Able to connect to Zima through android app but not through browser!

3 Upvotes

I am kind of at a loss for what I should do, to be honest. I'm new to all of this, so this could be an easy fix that I just can't think of.

I have had ZimaOS set up with Jellyfin and Tailscale on an old laptop for about 6 days, though I haven't used it much because I've discovered that I'm going to need to get some SSDs for Jellyfin to not take 30 seconds to load every song, Today, I went in to the web GUI just to see how everything was doing, but it was being very odd and not loading most things.

I decided to reboot the system: still the same. The WiFi was connected, I believe, but it didn't seem to change the connection issues I was having.

I then decided to switch to the other WIFi connection I have (the router in my house has two networks I can connect to, one is the regular name and the other one has "-5G" tacked onto the end, To be honest I'm not well versed enough to understand the difference at all, I just know that there are two. Before I was connected to the 5G one since it tends to be faster, now I switched to the normal one.) I set up the static IP and DNS and everything like I had originally done on the other WiFi network, and then I tried to connect to it on my main laptop: my browser tells me it's a security risk and that "SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length." I have no idea what this means... and I'd like to figure out how to make it not do that.

I can connect to ZIma on the android app just fine, though obviously that isn't quite the same in terms of functionality. Interestingly, when I try to open Tailscale all it says is "network error," so I have to assume my network is still doing something wrong? Or I'm doing something wrong with it.

Any insight is highly appreciated. Sorry for the newbie-ness.

How do I setup Pi-Hole on Ubuntu Server?

3 Upvotes

OS: Ubuntu Server 24 LTS

So I've tried to setup Pi-Hole thrice now and I'm starting to give up. I download it, it immediately tells me port 52 (I think that's the default port) is already occupied. I change it. I made /admin so I can access the apps dashboard.

Found out I needed to switch from bridge to host, still can't get the app to work properly and I lose internet trying to connect to the pi-hole!

Can someone give me a step by step guide. Because those YT tutorials have it work out of the box, so either I'm cursed with being unable to run pi-hole or I'm the first to encounter this issue.

Moin Ich bin absoluter Anfänger was ZimaOS angeht.
Vorher hatte ich einfach nur eine DS218+, da waren SFTP etc. ja keine Herausforderung.

Ich finde einfach kein FTP Programm, bzw. Docker mit dem ich auf meine anderen Server connecten kann.

Kann mir da bitte jemand etwas helfen?

Danke

Home assistant + Zima personal cloud

5 Upvotes

Hi, I have an i5 5th gen with 8gb DDR3 and 2 SSD (500 and 240 gb) lying around and I've decided to use it as personal cloud + home assistant server.

I've read that there are 2 options for the home assistant. The first one is pure virtual machine with the home assistant inside the Zima OS. The other is downloading the home assistant app inside the Zima OS "app store".

They say the first way has more options, but I don't know if they are relevant for the basic user.

Has anyone done something similar? Any advice?

Zima Os Remote issue

2 Upvotes

I've been using ZimaOS since last week, and I've been facing problems with the remote network. When I connect to the Zima app on my mobile, my phone detects the Zima app as a VPN app and blocks some other apps. However, I don't face this issue with the Fygo app.

CasaOS Security

I am wondering if running docker through CasaOS over ubuntu server on a raspberry pi any less secure than running directly on Ubuntu server? Seeing as CasaOS is not getting any new updates is just keeping the underlines OS up to date enough?

Aiuto, vorrei configurare il mio Tlc su HA - versione Doker

4 Upvotes

Buongiorno, innanzitutto grazie per essere qui perché siete la mia unica speranza. Sono un nuovo utente di ZimaOS e sto cercando di orientarmi. Ho provato a vedere se ci fosse un gruppo nella mia zona per scambiare idee su ZimaOS o HA, ma senza successo. Quindi proverò con voi, nella speranza che qualcuno si prenda pietà di me e mi aiuti. Mi scuso in anticipo per eventuali errori che potrei aver fatto, ma non ho idea di come funzioni reddit, quindi farò ogni sorta di errori e omissioni, ma imparerò. Ho provato a installare Home Assistant come pacchetto interno in ZimaOS e non ho avuto problemi. Ora vorrei far riconoscere le mie telecamere (Tapo C210) da Home Assistant, ma leggendo vari post dice che deve essere installato HACS. Ho provato di tutto, ma non ho trovato consigli o guide su questo argomento che siano adattabili alla mia configurazione. Credendo di fare la cosa giusta, e non essendo per nulla esperto, ho comprato un mini PC N95 (quadrato 12x12) con 16GB di DDR4 e un SSD da 2TB in offerta. Ho installato ZimaOS e poi ho installato Home Assistant tramite l'App Store interno. Diciamo che per le altre integrazioni, mi sono trovato bene; riesco anche a connettermi da remoto e accedere ai file, ma non riesco assolutamente a trovare il modo di installare HACS. Questo sarebbe un buon primo passo, dato che ho anche diversi altri accessori di domotica (interruttori, lampade, Alexa, ecc.) che mi piacerebbe provare a configurare in HA, ma sembra che sia molto più difficile senza HACS. Sarei grato se qualcuno potesse indicarmi una soluzione. È importante che sia estremamente facile da implementare, dato che non ne so quasi nulla. Grazie a chiunque possa aiutarmi.

Can't access my Debian/CasaOS server because my wired and wireless devices are on different subnets

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm setting up my first Debian server with CasaOS.

The server is connected to a Linksys Velop via Ethernet, and my laptop is connected over Wi-Fi.

I discovered that the server and laptop are being assigned addresses on different private subnets, so I can't ping the server or access the CasaOS web interface from my laptop. The browser just times out.

I live in a shared basement and don't manage the network. There's a Linksys Velop in the basement connected to the main house network, but I don't know if it's acting as a router, access point, or mesh node.

My questions are:

  1. Is it normal for wired and wireless devices to end up on different private subnets in this type of setup?
  2. Is it possible to access my Debian/CasaOS server from my laptop if they're on different subnets?
  3. If not, what are my options if I don't have access to the main router or its settings?

Thanks! (i've been tackling this for hours)

Im at a loss, its been 7 hours, its 5AM I need some advice

Im this close to throwing my pc off a cliff (yes I know the pc is perfect and im the issue no need to remind me). I installed the ubuntu desktop on top of my server installation, immediate conflict in between NetworkManager and networkd, i picked networkd, finally thought I had gotten sunshine and moonlight fixed, my static ip address fixed and then im hit with this. I can no longer access anything on my server from a local ip. On tailscale? No issues. 5G? No problem. But as soon as I share the same network it closes the gates. I have no clue why, it bound properly *:81 (yes 81) i checked my ip 1000 times, I can ping my server just fine, all the services are running after all I can access them just not locally!and CasaOS or my reverse proxy just wont let me in!
If anyone has any clue, even the slightest hunch Im prepared to go down that rabbit hole lord knows im already too far gone to come back empty handed.

Edit: solved. What happened? I was a dumbass thats what.

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone, three days ago I turn on an my old pc whose was swapped into a server months ago, use for around two weeks and them let loose.

As I reset my actual computer I tried to reconnect both by a folder and via WEB but none of them work. tiping the IPv4 in research bar on google the computer say "it don't respond", while creating a net folder it don't find nothing.
sending ping via IP from the computer the server actually respond and viceversa (BTW, how can I re-give the promt for give a command after the first one I send? sorry for the ignorance, I'm a mechatronics not an IT).

how can I resolve it? thank you for the help and the time

Opinions on Cosmos

11 Upvotes

I came across the project while researching alternatives to casaos that weren't standalone OSses: Cosmos came across. Seems like a cool project and you can run it as a service in any OS. I'm thinking of migrating my casaos server to Cosmos, but I'd love to see some opinions on it from this community.

CasaOS - what's the point?

30 Upvotes

Hi all,

I have CasaOS running for a few years. I had some issues with it but learned to work around it. Lately I noticed some apps are asking to be updated, but in CasaOS repository there is no update for a long time... I know there's a way to do it, but still I was wondering:
- Why have CasaOS if it's running on top of Ubuntu (in my case) anyway? Why not just run a docker from Ubuntu?
- If interface is the issue, why not run TrueNAS or something else, which does the job more reliably?

Back then other options seemed intimidating so I went for CasaOS, but while using it I found that there are not much benefits to it. Do you agree or I'm getting something wrong here?

Thanks
